Good morning from a bright, sunny Aberdeenshire.
Saw a great little film last night, 'Fishermen's Friends', a heart warming story about the singing fishermen of Port Isaac.
The mutt is going for a posh groom today...he will hate me for a week. Then garden centre on the way home to use some garden tokens to buy holiday 'bargains', Think I'll get something for tea in M&S food so it will be an easy, cook free day
Had video call from family yesterday in Singapore and my daughter has pneumonia...she can't sleep for coughing and if the air con is on it makes it worse. If the air con is off, it's too hot to sleep. She's met lots of dogs in the condo, so the mutt will have plenty of friends to play with.
Have a great Easter Monday!

Good morning Kate and all!

A beautiful morning here in Glasgow and I have a FREE day, I hope.grin
I am so looking forward to a day in the garden, pottering and tidying.

Yesterday's free ended up with us having DGD for a few hours and then taking her back to DS's, where he had prepared a barbecue for us. We had a lovely afternoon.
I went up with the family's Easter eggs, to find no-one at home, so I went looking for them at the park, where I found a hot, tired and grumpy wee girl on her trike.

Mum and dad, were also hot and frazzled, as they had not brought the car and were dreading the walk home!
We are not used to this weather in Glasgow. smile
Gran to the rescue and papa was delighted when I unexpectedly appeared with his best girl to give them a break.

Kate, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend's son.

Poor Kitty, I hope you feel better soon.

Enjoy your day everyone.

Good Morning from a gloriously sunny Black Country.

DIY today, painting, and going to try and choose tiles for the kitchen, and gardening!

So sorry to hear about your friends son NanKate so young.

Hope you feel better soon kitty I started with one last week, but luckily only lasted a couple of days.

Have a good day everyone

Morning all from Kent. Had a lovely day yesterday with DD and will go home later today. First we are going to a garden centre and maybe a vet as her dog was very unwell yesterday. ?

Good morning everyone from a dull Malaga. Never mind, it’s warm and I’m meeting my ladies for wine and chat this afternoon! There will be 6 of us today so there will be lots of laughter so we shan’t miss the sun particularly. I love Mondays here!

Hope everybody has a good day whether plans or none. x

Good morning to you all, a little overcast here, but the sun is just about making itself known. Daughter and son in law coming today, a lovely day with my son (and his casserole!) yesterday. Another lazy day for me, I must at some point get up and running (running?) Enjoy your days.

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. Promises to be another gorgeous day. I could get used to this...
Catching up with emails over coffee.
The demands of daily life will begin soon enough but I love not hearing the sound of traffic for once and just the birdsong.
Have as good a day as you can everyone

Good morning all.

So sad to hear of your friends son NanKate.

Hope you feel better soon kitty.

Poor you Kitty put your feet up with your IPad and a hot toddy and relax. I will send Dr Kildare round later. ?‍⚕️

It's a glorious day in North Leicestershire and I have a totally free day!!! I also have the worst cold I can ever remember ber. How does that happen?

Great minds Gaga ?

Morning All.

As Mick is still on his holiday in Bournemouth I have started the thread.

Off to the Garden Centre to collect a rather nice hooded coat for the cooler days which was in the sale. I do like a bargain.

Buying a plant for our holiday hostess (we leave tomorrow for a short hols in Dorset). She changed our holiday dates for us without any fuss so that we can attend the funeral of my friend’s 44 year old son next Monday. A sad event.

Hope you all enjoy your day. This could be our last day of lovely weather.
